Professional experience in experiential marketing, sponsorship marketing or brand activations, including independent ownership of day-to-day client relationships

Demonstrated experience growing existing client accounts and the ability to speak directly to revenue outcomes

Ability to independently manage senior-level client relationships

Strong written communication skills across briefs, proposals, scopes and client reporting

Commercial fluency and confidence discussing scope, budgets and program requirements with clients

Strong organizational skills with the ability to manage multiple accounts, programs and deadlines simultaneously
